Lyrics

Getting the Brush

Getting the brush [x2]

Life seems so futile

Getting the brush [x2]

I call my baby

But she never picks up the phone

You know what I mean?

She just leaves me there

Standing all alone!

Getting the brush [x2]

You can do anything

But I can't stand

To be ignored anymore

Getting the brush [x4]
